Conventional Fishing
What is Organic Fish?
As far as I know, fish caught in the wild cannot be marketed as organic in the UK. However, several supermarkets and many independent organic retailers now stock organic trout and salmon produced in fish farms. Several types of farmed mussels and shellfish are also likely to become more widely available in the future.
In organic fish farming, many of the pesticides, dyes and antibiotics widely used in conventional fish farming are not permitted and so these fish products are generally accepted to be credible organic products by both the soil association and consumers.
However, from an animal welfare point of view, there is some controversy about allowing farmed fish to be labelled as organic. Organic principles demand that livestock (which includes fish) should be able to express its ‘natural’ behaviour pattern and be kept as close to natural stocking densities as possible. How can this be when they are kept in cages in either inland or in fish farms out at sea?
The true cost of fish farming
Fish farming seems like a practical solution to the problem of overfishing. Fish farming, however, is the cause of many problems. In the UK, its salmon thats most closely associated with farming - and its shortcomings. Public demand for cheaper food means that farmed salmon are often kept, for financial reasons, very densely stocked, with huge numbers of fish crammed into very little space. In this state, the fish can more easily become diseased, and these diseases can spread to wild fish. Huge amounts of antibiotics are required to keep the fish moderately healthy. Also a confidential study for the UKs top organic body highlighted gaps between its principles and the standards it accepted, BBC Newsnight reported.
Is organic fish sustainable?
Other problems are escapes, when farmed fish interbreed with wild fish and potentially weaken wild stocks, as well as pollution to the water and seabed around fish farms. Farmed salmon, which are carnivorous, eat three times their body weight in fish feed, which is made from other fish - not the best use of resources from an environmental point of view.

i was wondering if anyone has had any luck with innovative was to fish?
i want to learn of effective fishing methods aside from the conventional fishing pole.
Thermonuclear Fishing R errr, Used To be ...Us do some hot gear.
Electrofishing zaps 'em with volts but ain't legal most places.
Carbide in the water blows 'em up and stuns 'em. Net them off the top. Also not legal.
Used quite often for illegal salmon poaching. Chuck in a lump of carbide it makes acetylene gas like crazy and goes...BOOOOOOOM.
Salmon taking a late supper of freshly fallen lacewing and midge flies (traditional dish and rather nice actually with single malt whisky distillery effluent as befits a salmon of a particular social background) have been known to complain to the fisheries department but the guys there can't read salmon anyway so that comes to nothing.
Large bright lamps hung over the water with a net slung underneath which is raised when a sufficient quantity of fish is seen swimming beneath the light to justify missing a minute of the latest late night soap opera on the portable TV has been a successful method in many countries. In Malaysia there are Kelongs which are homes for a couple of families built on stilts in the water and having a large central or offset square for the net and an enormous light.

Cormorants can be very useful if they are well trained and keep bringing the fish back instead of trading them for smoked haddock or peanut butter but they come of age and sometimes disappear in hopes of seeing a girl friend and having fun. C'est la vie.
Bowfishing is popular amongst educated brown bears and mountain men but requires an assessment of the angle of deviation of a light ray as a result of refraction as it crosses the boundary of water and air.
Snells' Law is of particular relevance.

Long-line fishing, especially for eels,is common on the loughs of Ireland and in many other parts of the world for normally-shaped fish with curvy bits.
See my answer here for the paradisical exhilliration of a morning on a misty lough in green and beautiful Ireland with a long line a'waiting for the slow journey back to the shore with nothing but the sounds of the lough awaking in the morning and a promise of a lie in with the sweetest piece of Ireland that the dear country ever produced as long as there are enough eels to trade for a new lawn mower and a packet of biscuits.
